I’d like to think that I’ve got motorcycle trip packing down to a science or at least well figured out by now. Sometimes I get a press bike that has a huge topcase and generous panniers and I just throw everything in and go. Other times, I get a cool bike that doesn’t have any…

Time for a new adventure! But first, a little history…Do you know this man? If you ride motorcycles, watched Long Way Round and like pointing your bike towards the horizon, you should.

Back on the road for my next RoadRUNNER Magazine assignment. This time I’m exploring the Catskills Mountains of New York on a Royal Enfield Continental GT. This is an authentic vintage cafe racer, not some modern day bike with antique lipstick. 500cc of low compression power. Less than 30HP. Top speed of…who cares, it’s so…
